Happy Bitcoin Pizza Day, Cointiply Fam!
On May 22, 2010, Laszlo Hanyecz made history by spending 10,000 BTC on two large pizzas—making it the first recorded real-world transaction using Bitcoin.
Back then, Bitcoin was a novel idea trading for fractions of a cent. Laszlo posted on a forum offering 10,000 BTC for some pizza, and someone took him up on it. Two Papa John’s pies were delivered to his home in exchange for what’s now worth over $700 million. Yes—those pizzas cost more than a private island today.
Then: A Radical Idea
  • Bitcoin was mostly mined on home computers
  • Forums were full of cryptography enthusiasts
  • 10,000 BTC could barely get you lunch
Now: A Global Movement
  • Bitcoin hit a new all-time high above $100,000 this year
  • It’s recognized as legal tender in multiple countries
  • Major institutions are investing billions through ETFs
  • And yes, you can still buy pizza with BTC (just hopefully not quite that much)
Bitcoin Pizza Day has become an annual celebration in the crypto community—a reminder of how far we’ve come. From 10,000 BTC pizza to BTC on the S&P 500 radar, it’s a moment to reflect on the early believers who helped build this movement.
At Cointiply, we love a good crypto milestone. Whether you’re stacking sats with PTC ads or earning free coins through bonuses, you’re part of a global story that started with two slices of pizza and a bold idea.
So grab a slice, earn some coins, and celebrate how far Bitcoin—and all of us—have come.
